The Olympic Games is coming, and people are willing to make sacrifices and efforts for the sake of safety and smooth roads. Many Beijingers volunteered to join the security forces and patrol day and night. Volunteers can't even sign up. In order to support traffic restrictions, many busy people also expressed their willingness to make sacrifices for the Olympics and take the subway instead.
Selfless and willing to pay for the collective or others is an excellent quality. China people have this quality in their spiritual veins.
But now the spirit of sacrifice embodied by China people is largely a temporary passion. After enthusiastic publicity, the Olympic Games have become extremely important in national life, so it will be a great honor for many people if you can do something for the Olympic Games. Many of our passion for sacrifice is the emotion under this kind of propaganda.
I wonder how many people are still concerned about the disaster area. I'm afraid the passion I gave at that time is hard for many people to find now. In addition to the gene of "self-drowning" inherent in China culture, the passion for contributing to the disaster area is also a considerable part of emotional response under the sensational effect.
It is best to be willing to pay from the heart, not to be provoked by external forces.
This heartfelt power is the most insipid but powerful. If the call of the Olympic Games is not needed, people can take the initiative to drive less; Without the sensational effect of the Olympic Games, we can take the initiative to do what we can for the society. That is a truly mature citizen, which is the characteristic of a truly harmonious society.
